The Spring 2024 diamond drilling program comprised 2,331.4 metres (m) completed in seven diamond drill holes testing 2.3 kilometres (km) of strike along the JT - Moni Trend. The drilling targeted 100 to 125 m downdip extensions from historical drilling. All seven drill holes intercepted anomalous gold mineralization including 137.5 m of 0.44 g/t gold and 18.7 m of 0.97 g/t from drill hole 24ES-161, 115.5 m of 0.50 g/t gold from drill hole 24ES-162 and, 28.0 m of 0.47 g/t gold from drill hole 24ES-160. The limited drilling completed confirms that the gold mineralization hosted within the Cheechoo tonalite remains open.
During the summer of 2024, Fury plans to complete the biogeochemical sampling grid where a robust geochemical gold anomaly within the same sedimentary rock package that hosts
'We were eager to commence drilling early on the Eleonore South property this spring to expand on previous drilling near the Cheechoo deposit as well as take big step outs to the West. As expected, we continued to find more Cheechoo style gold mineralization and, through our drilling, gained more insight on the Cheechoo Tonalite,' commented
The Eleonore South project is strategically located in an area of prolific gold mineralization with
Previous drilling at Eleonore South, 38,037 m in 164 drill holes, was largely focussed in the Moni area and successfully defined a 2,000 m x 750 m zone of lower-grade intrusion related gold mineralization similar to that of the Cheechoo gold deposit. Within the lower-grade gold halo, there are a series of structurally controlled quartz vein stockworks which host significantly higher grades of gold where previous drilling intercepted 53.25 m of 4.22 g/t Au; 6.0 m of 49.50 g/t Au and 23.8 m of 3.08 g/t Au.
'The overall strength of the gold mineralized system within the Cheechoo Tonalite is remarkable. We were able to intercept gold mineralization in all seven drill holes across a strike length of 2.3 km. The mineralization observed confirms the exploration model of a reduced intrusion related gold system with an orogenic quartz veining overprint. Gold mineralization occurs within an array of structural corridors with the orientations of individual gold bearing quartz veins being highly variable within these corridors. As we move into the summer months our focus shifts to completing the biogeochemical grid and finalizing drill targets where we see the same geological and structural setting which hosts

Forward-Looking Statements and Additional Cautionary Language
This release includes certain statements that may be deemed to be 'forward-looking statements' within the meaning of applicable securities laws, which statements relate to the future exploration operations of the Company and may include other statements that are not historical facts. Forward-looking statements contained in this release primarily relate to statements that suggest that the future work at Eleonore South will potentially increase or upgrade the gold resources.
Although the Company believes that the assumptions and expectations reflected in those forward-looking statements were reasonable at the time such statements were made, there can be no certainty that such assumptions and expectations will prove to be materially correct. Mineral exploration is a high-risk enterprise.
